In any case leaving the spot open is not an option for me either, if we have 3 votes for $something and 3 votes against $something - what to do then? It makes much sense to have an odd number of council members. I therefore suggest to follow the process being used in the past - taking a look at the next one in the election ranking and if a majority of council member think this one doesn't fit into the current council get developers to vote on a replacement for Jokey.
